Point level l Vibration l Liquids

Area of application
The point level sensors of the VEGASWING series are used as overfill and dry
run protection in liquids. They are also suitable for safety-related applications
up to SIL2. Special materials and coated versions also allow their use
in aggressive media.

Measuring principle
The tuning fork of VEGASWING is made to vibrate by a piezo drive. If the
tuning fork comes in contact with the medium, the frequency is damped.
The electronics responds by triggering a switching signal.

Advantages
With a tuning fork only 40 mm long, VEGASWING works reliably in all ­
liquids – regardless of the installation position. Pressure, temperature, foam
and ­viscosity do not influence the switching accuracy. The low-cost point
level sensors are easy to install and can be set up and commissioned
without medium.
